Our Story

A quiet corner of Fairhaven, meant for you

The Gingerbay Inn sits on a tree-lined street just off Main Street in historic Fairhaven — close enough to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront, far enough to hear the wind in the pines.

We opened our doors to travelers who prefer something simpler: a clean, comfortable room, a warm welcome, and the kind of stillness that makes a trip feel like a pause rather than a detour.
